Re: org-blog.el v1.17 and org-publish-org-to-html

[Rick Moynihan <rick@calicojack.co.uk>]

Hi,

I was using the version with org-mode (4.75) which seems to be the same 
as the one on your site.  Anyway, It seems like I was mistaken and 
org-publish-org-to-html is defined, it's just that the function wasn't 
interactive and I was expecting it to be.  I've not had chance to look 
much further into org-blog than this, but I have managed to get it to 
output some HTML.

On another note, I've not really used org-publish before, and have just 
seen that it supports multiple projects.  Is it possible to configure a 
project that is a 'single.org' file, which is in a folder of org files. 
  What I'd like is to be able to publish only single.org, and none of 
the others.  Is it possible to include *ONLY* this file?

Thanks again,

R.
